God’s Solution
God’s solution is always found in His Word.
We live in a world that trains us to say what our circumstances are. speaking according to what we see, feel, or experience.
Circumstances try to dictate our words. Pressure, a diagnosis, sickness, divorce, delay, opposition, and loss tempt us to agree with fear, limitation, or disappointment.
The challenge isn’t just what we face—it’s how we respond with our words. Left unchecked, our speech can align with the problem instead of God’s promise.
God’s Solution
God does not ask us to deny reality—He asks us to speak from a higher reality.
His solution is alignment:
Alignment of words with His Word Alignment of faith with truth Alignment of expectation with promise
In clear terms this is not arguing with what God’s Word promises.
When God is with you, opposition cannot prevail. When your words agree with Him, no power—natural or spiritual—can stop what He has ordained to come to pass. He says that HE HASTENS TO PERFORM HIS WORD. When you speak His Word, He will hasten to it.
So it makes sense to pray His Word, speak His Word and believe it.
For example when you feel sick –
What is good to say – God I thank you according to your Word (Jeremiah 30:17) that you are restoring health to me and healing me of all my wounds. God will hasten to His Word spoke from your mouth.
What isn’t good to say- God I feel so sick, where are you, why won’t you heal me? Don’t you love me? I’ve prayed, but I still feel lousy.
God’s Words are medicine to your sick body.
Your words when speaking symptoms and self focused thoughts make you feel worse.
In both examples you feel bad, but one way sets in motion the power of God. The other way does not.
Set in motion God’s plan for your life which is healing by speaking and praying healing scriptures.

What His Word Says
God’s Word is clear:
No one can stand against what God is doing in your life. He does not forsake what He begins. He brings His people into places of strength, increase, and inheritance. Victory is sustained not by striving, but by agreement with His Word.
The Lord is speaking to you-
Your words matter because they reveal what you believe—and belief shapes direction. Believe God’s Word.
A Daily Game Plan for Living as a Believer
1. Start each day by choosing agreement
Decide before circumstances speak:
“I will say what God says, not what I see.”
2. Guard your words intentionally
If you want change in your life, change what you speak. Words are seeds—plant the ones God can multiply.
3. Speak Scripture into real situations
Use God’s Word as your language for prayer, decisions, and declarations.
4. Stay aligned, not reactive
When pressure comes, don’t rush to react, panic and speak—pause and respond in faith.
5. Expect transformation
When your words line up with God’s Word, your life will follow in supernatural ways.

Series: Part 2: Elijah’s Condition Before God Spoke
Hearing what God is going to say to you-
Elijah heard God speak but it was a still small voice.
He was not weak in faith—he was weary in soul. This distinction is vital. Scripture never presents Elijah as a faithless man, but as a faithful servant who had reached the limits of human strength.
Fear, exhaustion, and discouragement pressed him to the edge. He withdrew, isolated himself, and began to question his future.
Yet even in this condition, God did not withdraw from Elijah.
This reveals a powerful truth about the nature of the still small voice: God’s voice meets us at our point of weariness, not our point of worthiness.
Elijah had just witnessed extraordinary victory, but emotional and spiritual fatigue followed. Scripture shows that weariness can cloud perception, distort hope, and tempt even the strongest believer to retreat.
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick” (Proverbs 13:12). Elijah’s soul was tired—not rebellious.
God understood this.
Rather than confronting Elijah with judgment, God approached him with gentleness. He did not speak through thunder. He did not shout correction. He spoke in a voice marked by calm, quiet assurance. The still small voice carried no accusation—only invitation.
This aligns with God’s revealed character throughout Scripture.
“A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not quench” (Isaiah 42:3).
God does not crush the weary; He restores them.
The still small voice is God’s compassionate response to human frailty. It is not loud because it does not need to compete. It does not pressure because it does not condemn. “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1).
Elijah withdrew into isolation, but God drew near. He asked Elijah a question—not because God lacked knowledge, but because He wanted Elijah to articulate his pain. God listens before He redirects. This is the voice of a Shepherd, not a taskmaster.
David described this same encounter with God when he wrote:
“He restores my soul” (Psalm 23:3).
Restoration begins with God speaking peace to the inner life.
The still small voice calms the soul before it corrects the path.
God does not rush His servants back into duty; He first restores their strength. “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength” (Isaiah 40:29).
This is why Elijah’s restoration followed God’s voice:
His fear gave way to courage-
Isolation gave way to renewed purpose Exhaustion gave way to strength
The still small voice did not shame Elijah for running—it reminded him that his calling was not over.
Jesus echoed this same heart of God when He said:
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
God’s voice calls the weary to rest before it calls them to rise.
The still small voice is not the sound of pressure—it is the sound of grace at work. It is God’s way of lifting the soul, steadying the heart, and reminding His servants that they are not alone.
When God speaks in stillness, He is not absent—He is near.
I have a good word for you-
You are not done. There is more.
Psalm 27:13,14, “I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord!”The Lord isn’t done. There is more. He has heard your prayers- Answers are coming.
Fulfillment is coming.
Restoration is coming.
Breakthrough is coming.
To God Be All the Glory,
Deborah (Mills) Booth

Series: God’s Voice
Hearing God, Finding Restoration
Key Scripture: 1 Kings 19:12 (NKJV)
Series Introduction
Throughout Scripture, God reveals that His voice is not always found in noise, pressure, or urgency. Often, it is in stillness that He speaks most clearly. The account of Elijah reminds us that God’s voice brings restoration, direction, and renewed strength to those who listen.
This series explores the still small voice—God’s voice—and the life-changing results that follow when believers learn to recognize it, trust it, and respond to it.
Part 1: The Nature of the Still Small Voice
“And after the fire a still small voice.” — 1 Kings 19:12
God was not absent during the wind, earthquake, or fire, but He chose to speak after the noise had passed. The still small voice represents calm, it is not forceful or frantic. It is God speaking from a place of peace.
The Hebrew understanding of “still” conveys quietness, rest, and composure. God’s voice does not compete with turmoil—it dispels it. His voice brings clarity, not confusion.
How does God speak? We can find the answers in the scriptures.
Logos is the written word, and Rhema is the spoken word.
Both Logos and Rhema are biblical words used for God’s Word, but they describe how God speaks in different ways.
Think of it this way:
Logos is the written Word God has already spoken.
Rhema is the spoken Word God speaks personally and presently.
They are not opposed—they work together.
LOGOS — God’s Written, Revealed Word
Logos refers to the written Word of God—Scripture as a whole.
It is God’s unchanging truth, His revealed will, character, promises, and instructions.
Logos is what God has already said and preserved for us in the Bible.
Morning Devotions Scriptures for Logos
1. John 1:1
“In the beginning was the Word (Logos), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
2. 2 Timothy 3:16
“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
Simple Explanation
Logos is the foundation.
It teaches us:
Who God is How He thinks What He promises What His will looks like
Without Logos, we cannot recognize God’s voice, because His voice will never contradict His Word.
RHEMA — God’s Spoken, Living Word
Rhema refers to a specific word spoken by God—often personal, timely, and alive.
It is when the Holy Spirit quickens a scripture or speaks direction to the heart.
Rhema is how God applies His Word to your moment.
Scriptures for Rhema
1. Romans 10:17
“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word (Rhema) of God.”
2. Matthew 4:4
“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word (Rhema) that proceeds from the mouth of God.”
Simple Explanation
Rhema is God speaking now.
It may come as:
A scripture that suddenly stands out. A quiet inner prompting.
A clear sense of direction.
A word of comfort, warning, or instruction
Rhema is often heard, not read—and it carries life, faith, and clarity.
How This Connects to the Still Small Voice (1 Kings 19:12)
Elijah did not hear God in the wind, earthquake, or fire—but in a still small voice.
That moment was Rhema.
God already had Logos—His covenant, His promises, His law.
But Elijah needed a personal word to restore his courage, direction, and strength.
God did not shout.
He spoke gently.
And Elijah listened.
The still small voice is often Rhema flowing from Logos—God speaking personally in alignment with His written Word.
Why This Matters for Hearing God Today
Logos trains your ear, Rhema directs your steps
When you consistently read Scripture, you learn the sound of God’s voice.
When God speaks quietly to your heart, you recognize Him—because His voice sounds like His Word.
Simple Summary for Your Readers
Logos = God’s written Word (the Bible) Rhema = God’s spoken Word (personal and timely) Logos anchors you Rhema guides you The still small voice is often Rhema, spoken softly, but powerfully
God still speaks—
and He often speaks to those who are willing to listen.
God is moving in your life, He hears your prayers and He is doing a new thing. Listen for His voice.

God is Restoring
There are seasons when life feels like it has stripped things away—
years marked by loss, delays, disappointments, and prayers that seemed unanswered.
But hear this clearly today:
God does not merely heal—He restores.
Restoration is the language of heaven.
It is not recovery; it is recompense.
It is God returning what was lost with purpose and power.
The Lord has not forgotten a single moment.
Every tear, every delay, every waiting season has been seen by Him.
What felt eaten away by time has been kept in His hands.
The Word of the Lord declares:
“I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten.” — Joel 2:25
This is not a hope—it is a promise.
God restores joy where sorrow lived.
He rebuilds what collapsed.
Excerpt from “The Breath of Heaven” available on Amazon HERE
He redeems time you believed was wasted.And now the Spirit of God says, return to hope.
Not because circumstances have changed—
but because He has spoken.
“Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.” — Zephaniah 9:12
What was taken will not define you.
What was delayed will not disqualify you.
God is restoring—not just what was lost, but double for the waiting.
Lift your expectation.
Set your heart toward hope again.
Restoration is not behind you—it is unfolding before you.
God is faithful.
And He always finishes what He begins.

A Great Way to Start Your Day
Listen to this great song and add it to your morning process and devotions.
https://youtu.be/VqRiOBusWhM?si=wrLEcDf-_sG__6y3
I have a word for you, for today. God is doing something for you today. He will break impossible situations and do something that you’ve been hoping and praying for. He is bringing your breakthrough to you. Don’t look away and be cynical.
God is speaking-
Stop fussing and being distant towards God. He is where the breakthrough begins. His Presence and His Spirit are what you need. Turn back towards Him.
Believe and give up unbelief in a simple way – repent and always ask God to cleanse your heart. Say you are sorry – you’ll be shocked at the difference in your heart and soul.
Shocked.
I repent every day.
I need God.
I want a clear path between my heart and God.
Sin blocks what God can do in your life.
But TODAY everything changes! Fulfillment is coming!
Jeremiah 40:4, “But today I am freeing you from the chains on your wrists.”
Luke 1:45. 45, “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”
Psalm 118:24, “Today is the day the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it!”
Jeremiah 1:18, “Today I have made you strong, like a fortified city that cannot be captured, like an iron pillar or a bronze wall against the whole land.”
Haggai 2:19, “from this day forward I will bless you.”
Deuteronomy 2:3, “you have circled this mountain long enough now turn North.” Do this today. Follow God’s leading today.
Exodus 14:15, “tell the children of Israel to go forward.”
Start today if you need to begin again-
Rejoice – Breakthroughs come when praise begins and complaining stops.
Repent of Sin- it has no place in your life and it can slow or even stop breakthrough from coming.
Familiarize yourself with what God says. Speak it over your impossible situation, people, finances, cars, bills, job or no job.
God’s Word is a seed that must be planted by speaking it and watering it with prayer.
Just like salvation begins with speaking. Your mouth, your prayer and words but then God moves and you are SAVED. Everything changes because of what you’ve said and spoken.
Just like repentance begins with speaking. Your mouth, your prayer and words but then God moves and you are FORGIVEN. Everything changes because of what you’ve said and spoken.
Just like being filled with the Spirit and speaking in tongues, it begins with speaking. Your mouth, your prayer and words but then God moves and you are FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. Everything changes because of what you’ve said and spoken.
Don’t wait, start today.
Worship
Praise
Speak God’s Word.
Everything is changing-
Today.
To God Be ALL THE GLORY!

“Series Introduction: The Still Small Voice”
1 Kings 19:12
God does not always speak through the dramatic or the overwhelming. In Elijah’s moment of exhaustion and despair, Scripture tells us that the Lord was not in the wind, the earthquake, or the fire—but after the fire came a still small voice. That voice was God’s voice.
I Kings 19:11,12, “The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.”
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.
This series explores the still small voice—God’s voice—and the life-changing results that follow when believers learn to recognize it, trust it, and respond to it.
God spoke to Elijah, and God is speaking to you. Elijah was not faithless—he was overwhelmed. Anxiety pressed in, fear clouded his vision, and circumstances beyond his control drained his strength.
Nothing around him had changed. The threats were still real. The pressure was still heavy. Yet in the middle of that storm, God spoke—not with noise, not with force, but with a still, small voice.
And when God spoke, everything changed. Elijah’s situation remained the same, but his heart was renewed, his courage was restored, and his purpose was reawakened. One word from God revived what fear had tried to silence.
That same God is speaking today. His voice still restores faith, renews strength, and awakens destiny. God’s words carry life, direction, and power—and when He speaks, He expects a response.
Listening is not enough; responding is where transformation begins. When you respond to God’s voice, despair and confusion leave.
Be assured of this: God is not silent, and you are not forgotten. As He spoke to Elijah, He is speaking to you now—calling you to listen, believe, and move forward.
When God speaks and you respond, everything changes—starting on the inside.
The phrase “still” carries the meaning of quietness, calm, and settled silence. It is the sound of rest rather than strain, assurance rather than agitation.
God’s voice was not competing with chaos; it was inviting Elijah out of it.
The still small voice represented the absence of turmoil and the presence of peace. peace that comes and fills you regardless of circumstances.
Elijah had reached a breaking point. Fear had overtaken him. Weariness weighed him down. Depression clouded his vision. Yet God did not rebuke him—He spoke to him.
And when Elijah paid attention to the voice of the Lord, everything changed.
After listening to God’s voice:
His depression lifted His courage was revived His calling was restored His strength was renewed –
The still small voice brought Elijah back into alignment—not only emotionally, but spiritually and purposefully. God reminded him that his life still mattered and his assignment was not over.
Your life matters and your assignment is not over. Regardless of how things look God has a good plan for your life. Bible insights are for you today. GOD is speaking, and it is for a purpose-
He is getting ready to show you His plan and His purpose.
In this series we will go through scriptures and reveal Gods plan for you. You’ll learn to not only listen for his voice, but be able to hear it when he speaks and know that was God speaking to me.
To God be all the glory,

The Promise Is Certain — God Performs What He Speaks
“For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God.”
— 2 Corinthians 1:20 (NKJV)
God’s promises are not uncertain words spoken in hope. They are divine declarations backed by His character, His power, and His faithfulness. Every promise God has spoken already carries within it the certainty of fulfillment. When God says Yes, heaven stands behind it. When we respond with Amen, we align ourselves with His will and His power.
A Promise from God Is Guaranteed by Performance
Scripture reminds us:
“Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”
— Luke 1:45 (NKJV)
Faith is not wishful thinking. Trusting God is not clinging to an impossible dream. A promise from God comes with divine assurance—it will be fulfilled. God never speaks casually. What He declares, He intends to perform.
The Word confirms this truth again:
“Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”
— Numbers 23:19 (NKJV)
Between Promise and Fulfillment Is the Power of Patience
Between what God has spoken and what we see manifested, there is often a season of waiting. Waiting is not weakness—it is training ground for faith.
Waiting teaches us:
to rely fully on God
“But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.”
— Isaiah 40:31 (NKJV)
In waiting, God refines us. We learn that God cannot be programmed or rushed—He is sovereign, faithful, and perfectly timed.
While we wait, God has our attention. He teaches us obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit. He shows us that He alone is our source—not circumstances, not people, not our own efforts.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.”
— Proverbs 3:5 (NKJV)
Waiting produces spiritual maturity. It anchors our faith in truth rather than emotion. It teaches us to confess God’s promises boldly and to walk in agreement with His Word.
The Reward of Patient Faith
There are powerful benefits to trusting God’s timing:
We receive the answer, which strengthens our faith.
Faith grows when we speak God’s promises, believe His Word, and remain steadfast—especially when fulfillment seems delayed.
A Strong Word of Encouragement
Believer, God is faithful. His promises are not fragile—they are firm. His Word is not uncertain—it is unchanging.
You are not called to live unsure, hesitant, or distracted. You are called to live focused, determined, and anchored in truth.
Know His Word. Believe His Word. Speak His Word. Live with the confidence that what God has promised, He will perform.
“God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent.”
— Numbers 23:19 (NKJV)
When God gives you a promise, you can depend on it. He is faithful. He is trustworthy.
And every promise spoken over your life is Yes in Christ—and Amen through your faith.
Stand firm. Trust fully. Move forward with confidence. God will do exactly what He has said.
To God Be All the Glory,
Deborah (Mills) Booth

Praise That Knows God’s Will
Praise That Knows God’s Will
“Praise is awaiting You, O God, in Zion…” — Psalm 65:1 (NKJV)
True praise is not passive resignation. It is not silence born of confusion, fear, or uncertainty. Biblical praise flows from confidence—confidence that comes from knowing God’s will through His Word.
When Scripture speaks, uncertainty is replaced with truth, and faith rises.
The original sense of this verse reflects a reverent stillness before God, not because His people are unsure, but because they are assured. This silence is not weakness; it is strength anchored in revelation.
It is the quiet confidence of those who know what God has already spoken and are standing in expectation of its fulfillment.
God’s Will Is Revealed—Not Hidden
Uncertainty about God’s will does not come from God withholding truth. God reveals His will through His Word.
When believers neglect Scripture, they may mistake fear for humility and endurance of hardship for submission. But Scripture never calls us to submit to what God has already promised to overcome.
God’s Word is clear:
“I am the Lord who heals you.” (Exodus 15:26) “No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.” (Psalm 84:11)
Fear, poverty, sickness, discouragement, intimidation, and insecurity are not expressions of God’s will—and therefore they are not to be submitted to. They are to be resisted with truth. Submission to God is never submission to what contradicts His Word.
When believers know Scripture, they know God’s heart. And when they know God’s heart, they do not yield to despair—they stand in faith.
Praise Is the Sound of Confidence
Praise that is silent before the Lord is not empty—it is full.
Full of faith.
Full of assurance.
Full of expectation.
This kind of praise declares without words:
“I know what God has said.
I believe what He has promised.
I trust His character.
And I am at rest because He is faithful.”
This is not a silence of defeat. It is the calm of victory before it happens.
It is the inward peace that comes from aligning your heart with God’s Word and allowing the Holy Spirit to strengthen you from within.
A Life Strengthened by the Spirit
As believers praise God, they are not yielding to a life of heartache or quiet despair. They are stepping into a life empowered by the Holy Spirit.
Praise aligns the soul with truth and opens the heart to receive God’s sustaining power. God empowers you by His Holy Spirit-
You are filled with the Spirit of God-
God is not against His people—He is for them. His Spirit is actively at work, bringing life, strength, and renewal.
“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” — Romans 8:11 (NKJV)
This is the believer’s confidence.
This is the foundation of praise.
This is faith that stands firm—knowing God’s will, trusting His Word, and living strengthened by His Spirit.
To God Be All the Glory!

Live With Purpose Starting Today
Faith is believing in a powerful God. Jehovah the One True God.
Psalm 83:18, “That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord,
Are the Most High over all the earth.”We serve the God who created the heavens and the earth — the God whose voice creation recognizes and obeys.
Who is He that created you for purpose in this life? He is the One True God-Isaiah 45:5, ““I am the LORD, and there is no other; there is no God but Me” ”
Scripture reveals that even the powers of darkness tremble at His authority. Our God, Jehovah, is all-powerful, and He has not called His people to live powerless lives. He has called us to be filled, strengthened, and empowered by His Holy Spirit.
God’s desire is not that believers merely believe — but that they stand strong, walk boldly, and live with purpose.
You Are Called to Live as a Strong Believer With Purpose
God does not leave His people unprepared for the seasons they face. He does not call believers to live without direction, clarity, or strength. From beginning to end, God remains faithful to strengthen, lead, and sustain those who trust Him.
Faith is meant to be lived out daily — grounded in God’s Word, guided by His Spirit, and anchored in His promises. A strong believer is not one who never faces difficulty, but one who knows where their strength comes from.
God’s call is clear: live strengthened, live intentional, and live aligned with His purpose.
A Call to Live Strengthened and PurposefulA Call to Live Strengthened and Purposeful is a Scripture-centered 30-day devotional created to help believers grow deeper in their walk with God.
Each day is designed to encourage time in the Word, intentional prayer, and daily alignment with God’s will.
This devotional is not about striving harder — it is about drawing nearer. It invites believers to slow down, listen to God’s voice, and walk forward with confidence, knowing that God is faithful in every season.
Available on Amazon HERE as a Paperback ($10.99)
and on Kindle HERE ($5.99)
Through daily Scripture, reflection, and prayer, this devotional helps believers:
-
- Stand firm in faith when life feels uncertain
-
- Be strengthened inwardly by God’s Word and Spirit
-
- Walk forward with courage, obedience, and clarity
-
- Trust God’s faithfulness from beginning to end
-
- Live fully for the purpose God has placed on their lives
This is not a devotional about comfort alone. It is a call to live strengthened, focused, and faithful. A life lived in Christ is not ordinary or powerless — it is a life built on truth, empowered by God, and directed by His purpose.
Built to Stand. Strengthened by God. Called to Purpose.
“Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.” Ephesians 6:10
“He who has begun a good work in you will complete it.” Philippians 1:6
God’s heart is not only to save, but to disciple — to teach His people how to live fully for Him and walk in obedience to His Word.
(Matthew 28:19–20)
As believers grow in faith, knowledge, and obedience, they are strengthened to live lives that reflect Christ and fulfill God’s calling — not just personally, but for the sake of others.
